Normal chest routine:
Flat bench 10-8-6-6-10 (the first set is like a warmup but I still count it, 225-10)
incline dumbell 8-8-6-8 (dumbells only go to 125 which is too light)
weighted dips 3 sets to failure
1 set of flys
...and the routine I tried out this past week:
A low low incline, heres what I do I take a regular flat bench from the dumbell area over to one of the squat racks and prop it up 8 inches on a board, its very stable,and im not sure of the degree of incline. The reason I do that is ive read and heard that a lower incline is better than flat from a bodybuilding standpoint. My sets consist of 10-225 (kind of a warmup but I still count it) 275-8, 295-6, 325-6, 325 or more to failure (4-6), 295 to failure.
Weighted dips 4 sets to failure
Cable flys 4 sets 10-8-8-10
I did that this week and got a pretty good mid to upperchest pump out of it, which is what I desparatly need because im 6'3 and my mid to upperchest isnt as developed as my lower and outer chest is and I want to hopefully change that with this routine as I head into a 12 week cycle.
So my question is will that routine and especially the low incline help out any and if not can anyone suggest anything else to develop the mid to upperchest region??? Thanks for any input.
